Cocktail Commissions

Just a quick note, to myself as much as anyone else, that Four I’m Under My Host, has been “commissioned” to create a couple of cocktails.

First, Shannon’s colleague and accomplished playwright Philip Gotanda has asked us to create a cocktail to go with his play I Dream of Chang and Eng. The play, which is still in development, centers around the lives (or should I say life?) of the famous Siamese Twins. Shannon and I were privileged enough to see a staged reading at A.C.T. recently, and know that both Cognac and Absinthe are referred to during the play. With the Thai element also in play, we have a wide range of pretty interesting possibilities.

Second, my friend and (just barely) former colleague Clay Fenlason from Sakai/Georgia Tech recently tweeted, perhaps jokingly, that I should make a cocktail for the core of Sakai 3 project, which is code named Nakamura.  The project uses Apache Sling at its core so he suggested a name: the Nakamura Sling. Obviously the Singapore Sling comes to mind as a starting place.

No progress to report on either of these yet. Your suggestions are welcome!
